Guest Darth Toon Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 In today's Chronic, it says he's drawing up a transfer list, just in case he's still in charge come the January transfer window! Even if he was, how much is he gonna be able to spend if the club is still in a state of flux, with a potential sale either going through, or still potentially just a round the corner? With all due respect to Kinnear, if we are taken over beforehand, I can't see the new owners keeping him on much beyond his 8 match 'contract'. And more importantly, don't he know that transfers isn't part of his job? Let's just hope he doesn't walk out when he finds out! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dilligaf Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 seems to be a lot of Kinnear quotes about, this one dont exactly fill me with confidense Newcastle United boss Joe Kinnear says local lads Shola Ameobi and Steven Taylor will be a key part of his team in the coming weeks. He said: “I have been working with the defence all week and I have been saying to Tayls that I want him to be more vocal, to have more presence and to organise the back four. “He’s got a great future ahead of him in the game and this is a great chance for him to show us what he can do. Shola Ameobi is another one. He’s got enormous potential – he’s a big strong athletic lad and if we can sort out his head he could be awesome for us. “I know people have said some things about the lad but this is his chance. He’ll get fantastic service from quality players in this team and my message to him is that he can be a real handful if he believes in himself. It’s an incredible opportunity for him.” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benwell Lad Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Shola has been a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma for years now. I used rate him but have now I've given up on him. Who knows ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. TC Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 To be fair to Shola, he's always been unutterably shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 I think Shola might just fit in with the way JFK wants to set his team out. Shola can be a handful on his game which is admittedly on very few occasions. Kinnear will soon find out I expect, but who knows...maybe Kinnear will get something out of him for a couple of games?

Roeder managed to - Shola stuck in a few goals after Roeder first took over. Then his hip needed sorting and he's been a non event since. Even when he was regularly sticking the ball in the net he was still as irritating as f*ck to watch though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobby_solano Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 according to his wikipedia page pele reckons his ideal strike partner would be shola, and that he's known as the fenham eusebio. i wonder how that got there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Keegan says something similar about squad players that we don't all rate, which he did on several occasions, then he gets hailed as a great motivator. I don't rate Ameobi or Taylor that highly, but I can't disagree with too much of what Kinear says there or, more importantly, his reasons for saying it. I wish everyone would stop trying to put a negative spin on every fucking piece of news or quote that we get (no specifically aimed at you dilligaf) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

"You might be complete horse shit Shola, although admittedly the shit has a better first touch, but the tea lady was injured in the warm-up so we're going to have to play you".

Cronky Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Looks like Shola for the first hour, and then Xisco. It's worth a go. Shola puts himself about a bit, and can be difficult to stop in certain situations. He does tire, and Xisco with his pace might do well for the last half hour. It's no good pretending we've got Berbatov or Torres to choose from. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
